The sixth week of the New Jersey legislative session, which usually lasts from ten to twelve WCeLx, will bo inhered in tonight. Apart from the suffrage resolution not one measure haseen passed by both houses and crv littles has been done in cither house, although the tcrm Is nearly half oer. I "With the question of woman suffrage I out of the way. however, it is believed thht matters will be speeded up a bit. Among the important legislation pend ing there are the wet and dry bills, nnu for 4 per cent beer by MUmritj Leader liarrett, which is an udmiuis 1 tration measure, another for i per cent ljeer on a referendum by Senator Unities, of Camden, and which mauv think will die in committee because of the referendum : the ltunyon resolution for the ratification of the fidernl pro j hibition amendment, which i? expected! to blumber in committee or be decisive i ly defeated, and the rtutioii state ''ii forcemrnt bill patterned nfter the Vol atcml act which it is pretty salV to' predict will get nowheic in the pre.. ent Legislature There has been som" talk of another , hearing on the liquor bills because tin wets occupied most of the time at the las.t lieariDg and Senator Runyon nnd other drjs did not get a chance to ' talk, but at this time no date has been set for a future hearing and tbe chances arc rather against it. Many look for the easy passage of the Harrett bill. I There may be an attempt to cut down the -1 per cent alcohol provision to .'! i per cent, but it is scarcely likely that such a move will succeed. Anxious to Do Something The Democrats, realizing that Gov- , ernor Edwards was elected on btrictly a wet isue, declare thc want some- I tiling worth while done by way of leg- ' islation for the wets or they want , nothing nnd if nothing, they w ill throw the whole blame on the Repub lican majority in the Legislature and j go before the people ncut fall on the wet issue and ask tbem to turn out the Republicans. The Republican leaders fully leal- ize this situation nnddo not want to be left "holding the bag." At the' same lime they do not wish to too freely help 'L'dwards to keep his campaign j promises. They would like to see the governor's wet program fail, but don't -w-r clinnlilri- the rpsnonsibilitv of ' blocking him for fenr of the effect in ' the next election. Lntler me conui- . tions, therefore, the outlook is for a liberal enforcement bill with a 1 per cent "kick." It is kuowu that many of the sena tors are opposed to a icferemlum wet I bill because they believe the people I are weary of referendums. The voters j who elected Edwards thy say want ' action, not delay. For that reason the talk of a 3 per cent referendum beer bill is being discounted here. Senate Majority Wet In the Senate a counting of noses last week showed that five Republicans.! Messrs Rlnnchard White, of Hurling . ton; Charles D. White, of Atlantic: Stcens, of Monmouth: Bright, of C.ipc May and l'ilgrim, of Essex, faired i the Rarrett bill or something -imilar to1 it, These, with the sis Democratic senators, could put oer a measure of that kind in the upper house. In the Assembly, while Leader Ilershfield :ip pcais to oppose the Barrett bill, ct, the wets of both parties are in the ma iority in that body, and it in onh a question with them of what kind of a wet bill to pais The Rarrett bill is expected to be reported out of committee in the Housn' tonight, although it rauv be held up and thfu an effort will be made under i the rules to forte it out. If it comcsi 11UI 111 lit'l'UIJJlI-UlJ-l Will JlKI'l Ulll-IUI'l to alter it so that it caunot be called strictly a Democratic measure. While the citizens' committee has failed to agree on a Sunday movie bill, it is understood that the motion-pic-1 turc interests have such a measure ready for introduction tonight Of course, coming from that source, the bill will no doubt hac more opposition on the plea against "commercializing the Sabhath'' than if it came from disin- WINTER KKMIHTS vn.vNTir CITY. .

V I his will increase the amount of work done, which will beery desirable from the public point of view; and it will give the workmen a considerable increase in their wages, which will help them in meeting the present high cost of living. It is generally agreed that increased production is absolutely necessary if the high cost of living is to be checked.

'Ware Benzoate of Soda Food Label, Warns McCarui High-Grade Raw Infection, The tUldnent that tie United State government endorses tlie use of benzoate of soda in food products is a lie. The statement that tho United States government recommends the use of ben zoate of soda in food products is a lie. The United States government merely tolerates benzoate of toda and compels the food manufacturer who uses It to warn the public against it by declaring its pres ence on the label. J This official toleration, brought about by terrific political pressure, compromise, and subterfuge, developed such a bad odor at the time of its application that its stench still smells in the nostrils of decency. i The food manufacturers who retort to . its use are ashamed of it. Under the law they have to confess its presence" in thetr products, but they make their confession in a whisper, using the smallest type per missible. If benzoate of soda were a virtue which the writers of advertising copy could be proud of. they would loudly proclaim it in the boldest type. Why, then, do they never refer to it in their advertisements? Why are the de signers of labels instructed to bids the Ehrase, "Contains one-tenth of i per cent :nzoate of soda," along the border as in conspicuously as possible? Have these subterfuges no meaning for the consumer? Has the consumer for- gotten that the government officials who so vigorously opposed tne use ot Benzoate of soda were compelled to resign from office to make place for a group of soft pedal, "safe and sine" officials who could be de pended upon to stir up no more controversy on the subject? . Benzoate of sods is a substitute for I high-grade raw materials; a substitute for clean hands; a substitute for clean kettles: ! a substitute for clean methods of manu- I factunng. T servatives in Nut Butter is the confession of a fault. Their presence means either poor materials, inferior manufacture, or ignoranceyupon the part of the manufacturer. IVIargarine packages tell their own story. When buying Nut Butter, look carefully to .see whether the label bears the statement, "contains one-tenth of 1 Benzoate of Soda." Assure yourself of abso lute purity and freedom from Benzoate of Soda by buying Goody is the product of the Ashby Process, a new, hiehly superior, method of Nut Butter Manufacture. Back of this process are years of practical nut but ter makinc and a life -time study of butter makinc prob lems. Goody is an individual, smooth spreading product that tastes exactly likethefinest cream cry butter and is as' delightfully satisfy ing as it tastes. "A pound of Goody bought tonight will be tomorrow's keen delight.'' HAUCK NUT BUTTER CO., Newark, N. J- Philadelphia Branch: 219 Callowhill Street Materials, When Clean and Free Vvom Need No Chemical Agent, He Says, Br ALFRED W. MeCAIfTT Low-grade raw materials handled slov enly, shifted, shovelled, poured In bulk, can be kept from rotting by the use of benzoate or any other embalming agent. High grade raw materials handled under clean and wholesome surroundings, free from infection .with self-respect and decency on guard, require no germicide or other chemical preservauve to Keep mem nt. To the manufacturers who use it ben zoate of soda is commercially important and they derive great benefit from it. v The public denves no uenetit trom it. Why should the public pay for It when at its best the only claim that can dc maae in, its defense is that It promotes salvage and rescues from tho dump foodstuffs that would surely go there without the protec tion of dope. When Dr. Harvey W. Wiley and Dr. Floyd W. Robinson disobeyed orders from their suoeriors bv continuinu to prove through repeated experiments that ben zoate of soda is a real poison when con sumed with acids, tomatoes, orange juice, grape juice, cider 'or any other fniit or vegetable product containing acids they had to get out of the service "for the good of the service." Even when benzoate of soda is consumed in alkaline foods, such alkaline foods are invariably consumed with other foods of acid nature, whether the benzoate be in them or not. It i3 quite impossible on a mixed diet to consume non-acid foods. If benzoate of soda could be legitimately used in dairy products, including milk and butter, it would solve a problem that has vexed the scientific world for years. The Government will not permit tho use of benzoate of soda in milk. Why? Let the food manufacturers who use it in butter or other tabte fats churned with milk answer this question.
